Sure would have been nice. Any chance lucky zone can show how many entries the winners had.NC Lottery
That's up to each individual member whether or not he or she wants to share that information.

Second chance drawings does not have enough winnings per drawing out of over 1 mill entries,your shot is same with MM, PB and cash five .I did not expect to win nor am I not shocked with these second chance wishes.

5/05/2017 01:54 - Denver G.

That's okay. My bank account isn't as green as it could have been, but my garden is. Have a great weekend and better luck to us all next time.

I don't understand why it is taking so long to draw ultimate millionaire. This draw is too long. It has been going since August 2016. What's the problem? NC Lottery
Hi there, Chairston. The second-chance drawings are meant to last the life of the game. The Ultimate Millions ticket is still kicking, with one top prize of $10 million still remaining.

5/05/2017 12:48 - Kimberly W.

How do you enter into the second chance drawings?

5/05/2017 12:28 - Denver G.

Oh well, checked the winners page and it looks like all 49 emails have been sent out. 20 for the lucke rewards drawings & 29 for the second chance drawing. All the winners have been notified & some have already started to claim the prizes. Congrats to those 49 winners. All I can say is I'll try again next month :-). To LZ, I say Mother May I see some green next month??? NC Lottery
To which we will reply: That we do not know, but you 'May' enter 30 points for a chance :)

5/05/2017 12:00 - liko s.

Where is the winners list for the second chance winners?? Kind of odd!! NC Lottery
They are there waiting to be viewed! The winners are listed on the Winners' Tab in Lucke-Rewards. Here is the link:https://rewards.lucke-zone.com/drawings. You need to use the filter in the header called Second-Chance Drawings and set it to "All" to see results of older drawings such as the first Extreme Millions drawing.

5/05/2017 11:57 - Thomas P.

I'm sure it has been asked before How much of the Cash 5, 590,477 is take home? NC Lottery

5/04/2017 09:29 - John S.

I agree four out of five is impossible to get. Should be bigger prize

5/04/2017 08:32 - monica e.

Lord when will I win big on this Second Chance drawings? I know I probably played a million of my dollars away! Since I've been playing since it started. Question: when will you pick someone to win the second chance in 2017? I feel like I'm wasting my money! NC Lottery
Hi there, Menglish. What second-chance drawing are you talking about? We have had many winners from second-chance drawings already in 2017. You can check out the winners board here:https://rewards.lucke-zone.com/drawings. The Extreme Millions Second-Chance drawing was on Wednesday. When the winners claim, the winners board will reflect the changes. Hope that helps!

5/04/2017 07:58 - odysseus f.

hi where are the winners from the last drawing for may!? NC Lottery
Hi there, honey! The drawing for the April promotions was on Wednesday. The drawings for the May promotions have not happened yet! :) But winners are typically notified within 48 hours after the date of the draw. Once the winner has claimed, the winners board will be updated here:https://rewards.lucke-zone.com/drawings.

5/04/2017 07:28 - Gail F.

That's great congratulations! I hope someday that will be me!

5/04/2017 07:08 - Charlene W.

Winning scratch off win in raeford $4 mill from a $20 millionaire bucks ,so fortunate for winning that it must be nice

5/04/2017 05:27 - greg s.

It seems to me that their are a lot of people spending a lot of money trying to win big instead of playing for fun!I play for the amusement factor and buy sparingly but have done quite well. I never buy new tickets, I buy old tickets after checking web site to see what is left on games. not looking at the big prize but how many smaller prizes are left and see the odds and this has worked for me. Do your home work and it may be worth while.

5/04/2017 05:13 - Tatania S.

Have the emails been sent out to the winners for the extreme million-dollar drawing on May 3rd NC Lottery
Hi there! Winners are typically notified within 48 hours afer the draw. Once the winners claim, the winners board will be updated. Keep checking your email!

5/04/2017 04:46 - Tatania S.

Have the emails gone out to the winners of the drawing Wednesday

5/04/2017 04:28 - Tony T.

INNE7210 SAID I had 4 out of 5 numbers right! I had a 14 instead of a 20 AND that was a QP not chosen numbers!*********** isn't that something ? I personally think to get 4 numbers vs. all 5 should carry a larger prize amount 'cause that last ONE right number is darn near impossible to get . $1-2000 bucks with 4 numbers right would give me a LOT more incentive to buy those cash5 tickets which I rarely do unless the pot gets over 3-400 K . Besides, close doesn't count much 'cept in horseshoes and hand grenades. lol

5/04/2017 02:55 - CHRIS T.

Can you tell me what location the cash five was bought in April? NC Lottery
Hi, Teal. We sure can! The lucky ticket was sold at the Walmart on Murchison Road in Fayetteville.

5/04/2017 01:51 - Gerald B.

HEY, that's one of the spots that I purchase on the regular...not me though, already checked my tix. Congratulations to the winner!!!!!!!!!!!

I had 4 out of 5 numbers right! I had a 14 instead of a 20 AND that was a QP not chosen numbers!

5/04/2017 12:42 - Charlene W.

DAVIDEARL84 said he believes the lotto is rigged they must choose the numbers that comes out, BINGO that's the way it works no matter if LUCKEZONE saids different,everybody knows this but goodluck to you, me and the rest

5/04/2017 12:29 - Gregory F.

Congratulations to the winner sure wish it was me I could rely use that amount of money. My blessing is on the way. What GOD has for me is for me.need big money in Ahoskie.

5/04/2017 12:19 - Terresa S.

I submitted quite a few tickets for the 5-3-17 Extreme Millions drawing. Will those tickets apply to the next drawing? Thanks. NC Lottery
Hi there! Hopefully this will help clarify. Entries made after 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, April 30 will be entered into the second drawing. Entries made before then were entered into the first drawing and do not carry over. You can view a more detailed list of rules here:http://ow.ly/wgq230brptZ.

Congrats! A winner here in Raleigh as well a couple weeks ago. I'm happy for them but when I see it's their 1st time playing or #s just popped in their head...it is challenging as I lost my job 2/1 and still looking, I care for an almost 90 year old parent as well. This would help so much. Just wish winners also knew they can give to an individual up to $10k and that person doesn't have to pay taxes on it, it would be a great help up and they get the tax benefit of doing so. Hoping recent winners were all in need or have the heart to help some directly who are. Count your blessings and be grateful...daily!!

Congratulations to the winner!

5/04/2017 07:44 - Teresa M.

Congratulations to the lucky. Also, I live in Charlotte, and have never won any bi payouts. But, I've been playing the second chance game since 2012, and recently started receiving small amounts of winnings, So I will continue to enter my tickets and remain hopeful :)

5/04/2017 07:42 - Denver G.

I knew there was a way around. The Works gives you a QP, but you can edit your numbers to update your cart before confirming your purchase.

5/04/2017 07:29 - Marty T.

Player, i've been p,aying the lucky rewards drawings for YEARS without winning a single time. I had over 5,100 entries for the recent X the cash second chance drawing which was drawing 10 winners! Yet my name wasn't among the winners. I feel your frustration. It is what it is,a drawing with thousands & thousands of people entered.

5/04/2017 07:17 - melody W.

Awesome, congratulations

I think the lottery is rigged.. i believe the numbers that they choose it what comes out... i dont think its random...... i would hope its not that way.. that would be co sidered legal robbery........... NC Lottery
Hi there, DavidEarl84. Don't worry! It's not rigged. The lottery is independently audited to ensure games and practices are fair and meet rigorous standards. We even publish those reports on our website, including detailed financial reports. You can view them here:http://www.nc-educationlottery.org/about.aspx. Players are also allowed to attend drawings! We believe transparency and integrity are an integral part of the lottery, and we want our players to know that we do everything we can to uphold the public’s trust.

WOW! 3 big Cash 5 winners in April. A winner in Fayetteville 4-4-17 winning 416,547. A big winner in Brown Summit 4-13-17 winning 514,153. Another winner in Raleigh 4-22-17 winning 512,110 dollars. Now already, the biggest winner was on May 2nd from Charlotte, winning 590,477 dollars. Congrats to you all! Hoping one day it will be my turn to hit a big payday! All wins was 9 days apart, from 4-4-2017 1st winner, then 4-13-2017 2nd winner and then April 22 2017 3rd winner. Now between April 22 to May 2nd was a 10 day spread to win. Maybe another big winner in 10 days before it's won again.Good Luck everyone!

5/03/2017 09:13 - Gary B.

blah!

5/03/2017 08:56 - Annie M.

The representatives from the NCEL keep repeating the fact that the number of entries (that you enter), in the Lucky Zone does not determine the winner. You can enter one lucky ticket and win, if it is the lucky ticket. I've had over 1,000 entries and didn't win anything, so don't give up trying.

5/03/2017 08:49 - Sharon D.

Whoever you...CONGRATULATIONS! I thought it was me! LOL!!

Be patient player. They prolly haven't sent the emails out yet. Might not have even picked the winners yet. And NO they don't pick winners because of the all the sad comments & begging "pick me". The moderators don't pick the winners!! A computer does. The computer picks a # not a person. All together there will be 49 winners that will be sent an email . Emails might not be sent out till 5:29 pm Friday. Winners have 30 days to claim their prize!!!!
